## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability edgar-financial-snapshot-by-ticker-or-cik-b89ae52a -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Pull the latest annual financials for Tesla — I need revenue, net income, EPS, total assets, liabilities, and operating cash flow from their SEC XBRL filings. Use their ticker TSLA.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a broad financial overview of a US public company in a single call — covering income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow highlights — directly sourced from as-filed SEC XBRL data. Prefer this over individual concept lookups when you need multiple financial metrics at once, and over third-party financial data providers when SEC source fidelity and XBRL accuracy matter. Best for investment research, due diligence, portfolio screening, and financial comparison tasks.

## Known failure modes

- Unknown ticker or CIK returns found=false with no financial data
- Company exists in SEC but has no XBRL filings (e.g., older filings) may return empty or partial data
- Malformed or out-of-range CIK/ticker returns a validation error
- Network or upstream SEC EDGAR unavailability may cause timeouts
- Payment failure (x402 protocol) prevents the call from completing

## How this service works

One-call financial snapshot for a US public company (by CIK or ticker), from its as-filed SEC XBRL statements: revenue, cost of revenue, gross profit, operating income, net income, EPS (basic/diluted), total assets, total liabilities, stockholders equity, cash, operating cash flow and shares outstanding. Each line item gives the latest full fiscal year and the latest reported value. Unknown company returns found=false.

## Output

A structured JSON object containing 12+ financial line items for the company, each with the latest full fiscal year value and the latest reported value. Fields include revenue, cost of revenue, gross profit, operating income, net income, basic and diluted EPS, total assets, total liabilities, stockholders equity, cash, operating cash flow, and shares outstanding. If the company is not found, the response returns found=false.
